"Information? Hm? Is that what you seek? Then so be it; but of course, it comes at a price. We aren't so crude as those blundering messes in the Dragon's Mouth but I'd like something of equal value, no?" - 杜元迷
The Kraken is a restaurant located very close to the Lake of Trials, known for it's inexpensive but delicious seafood and the odd, hooded staff members that keep it running. Denizens of all sorts wander into through the entrance for food, company, and above all--information. One of the hooded figures here, supposedly the boss, is renowned for their intellectual prowess and vast knowledge of many things; especially of the technical and of legend.
Said hooded figure can aid you in many things. They can identify items, artifacts, weapons; tell you what use they have and where they originated from; give you cryptic advice on where it is effective or where it could be used; translate text and language from around the world; tell you about gods, or lack thereof...the possibilities are endless but, as nothing comes so easily in the Illeuad, they expect equal compensation for their knowledge.
The restaurant itself is dimly lit, with bodies bustling about the interior as guests get seated and delivered their meals. There's a small bar with nice drinks--also relatively inexpensive--and those hooded figures seem friendly enough. You can barely see the bottom half of their faces from beneath their dark cloaks. One of them seems to have a forked tongue. Another seems vaguely tiger-like. You can see small patches of scales on the chef's jawline.
In the dark lighting, if you look closely enough, you can notice various chess pieces, playing cards, and small statuettes scattered all around the restaurant. In the back near the restrooms there's one slightly hidden room; small and empty save for a single pristine antique mirror. It's glass is polished to perfection, but it's reflection is empty. The hooded figure claims it does not reflect the living. You see the hooded figure on the glass.
Drop by The Kraken and order a nice meal, a few drinks, and whatever knowledge your heart desires. Denizens of the Illeuad say that their octopus dishes are the best--a true delicacy in this era.
